I have recently been loving a new site I found and wanted to share it with anyone who may not have heard of it. It's called "Craftsy" and it is so much fun!

It is a website which offers patterns, projects and classes on any of the main crafts- Sewing, Quilting, Cooking, Paper Crafts, Knitting, Crocheting, Jewelry and even Gardening.

They offer workshops and classes on any of these subjects at pretty reasonable rates so if you have a hankering to learn something and online teachers work for you this is a great place!

Membership is free and for those already proficient in any crafting area there are pages of projects/ patterns! Members can post things they have made and link the pattern they used or sell so others can use it or purchase it. You can also "heart" any project/patterns you like and those items become eligible for contest the website runs. You can also "follow" any member whose items you really like.

My favorite part is that when you are signed in and looking thru patterns and see one you want to do you can save it in the "My Saved Projects" area of your account. When you are ready to start or purchase your next craft it's ready- no hunting thru trying to remember where you saw it. I don't know about you but that happens to me all the time :)
